Sparks symposium: postgraduate researchers in energy invited

The UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC) would like to invite you to this years Sparks symposium on the 20 October 2011 at UKERC HQ in London, with a social gathering the night before.
Date: 20 October 2011
Location: UKERC HQ, South Kensington, London, SW7 2PG

Meet your fellow energy researchers from across all disciplines and learn about their work. You can still submit papers to present at the event. As a special bonus, a fellow Spark will cast an eye over your manuscript and help you to improve it (or praise you if it is perfect).

To attend, please register with Angie stating your university and the topic of your PhD. You need to become a member of the Sparks network which you can easily do by entering your details here.

UKERC can cover one nights’ accommodation for a limited number of Sparks – on a first come first served basis. Please indicate to Angie if you are applying for accommodation too and if you are successful Angie will book the hotel for you if you tell her which night you need (19 or 20 October). If your accommodation cannot be covered, you will be notified.

If you are working on a paper, do take advantage of the opportunity to present it at the Symposium and have it reviewed by a fellow Spark. Please indicate your interest to present to Angie asap, and submit your manuscript before 10 October. We will assign a discussant to you, and in turn you will be sent someone else’s paper for review.
